Update: Unity iPhone 1.7 featuring iPad support is available for download!

That's our iPhone Demo from GDC running in the iPad simulator, here's how the conversion process works :

  1. Import the project with the forthcoming version of Unity iPhone
  2. Select iPad as the target in the build settings
  3. Hit build button
  4. Enjoy ;-)

The process was simple since the project was initially designed as resolution independent. How would your game behave on a larger device? Answering that question will help you determine how much work will be required to make your iPhone game iPad ready. So while we don't have a solid date to share just yet, there's nothing stopping you from beginning the process of making your app iPad ready.

I'm sure you have many questions and while we might not be able to answer them just yet, we'll be getting more information out as soon as we can — I promise!
